A web page will look different on each computer. There is too many variables for the way a page looks. And they're different on each computer. Screen resolution, what's on the left and right side of the browser, the size of the browser, the browser itself, the font, etc.

So a person can't be really sure if their signature is too big. If you minimize the browser, then decrease the length, the page will grow longer. If you increase the length, the page will grow shorter. In fact, those with 21-inch monitors may not even think their signature is very long.

I actually like the idea of not allowing users to have images in their signatures. I belong to a forum that goes by this rule, and as frustrating as it seems sometimes, the forum itself looks SO much cleaner then most forums.

And yet you have two images in your sig.

I need a new siggy, because this siggy is shitty... shittiggy... shiggy.... something.

So? If I'm allowed to have images in my signature, then I'm going to images in my signature. I never said that everywhere I go I abide by that rule as if it's a law; I just stated that without them, a forum would look a lot cleaner.

but I also like to express myself with a signature.

You can; with text. Also, icons/avatars are expressful.

But then my sig request thread would be out of bussiness

No, actually I've been on that forum for two years, and the only times the request threads are empty is when nothing new has happened in the series; much like how this forum is dead when nothing new has been discovered, or the site hasn't been updated.

In a previous site clean up, many of the request threads were accidentally deleted from AF (avatarfans.net), so I can't really point out any threds that are longer then 70 pages; but I can tell you for a fact that even with a site abiding by the 'No Image' rule, you won't have sig request thread going out of business.

I don't agree with this. That would disable all banners, Adopted glitch pokemon, and other images that everone likes!
